He seems to suggest that the main issue is the inability of the remainers and the Hillary set to accept that the election results show a rational decision made by the people. Yet, when a decision is made under the influence of lies and falsehoods, I wouldn't call it rational. I'd say that people were cheated out of their votes. Who should we blame about that is a whole different story.

Me too, given how widespread such issues are, each drug maker should at least loose a couple of patents they own for each violation and have a couple of executives face jail time. That would make them think twice before conspiring the next time.

"people who are good at politics and bullshit are the ones who are most successful"

Spot on! I'm still surprised to what extent this is happening. The science doesn't even have to be good. As long as you can use white lies and half truths, and play politics you'll get ahead. And once you're a "success" even if you do make a mess and do get caught, you'll just make a deal, transfer to another uni and carry on like nothing's happened.

Having said that, there are many great scientists doing valuable research within this broken system. But, as you pointed out, many do decide to leave and that's a great loss.
